We need them to buy our weapons so they can continue this.... "It is what it is" Also: "The world is a very dangerous place!" Well, those 85k would never go to a Trump property anyway, plus isn’t Yemen a hole country anyway?

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not so sure that the Supreme Court, if asked to rule upon the validity of a subpoena issued by Robert Mueller, would rule that the President can ignore that subpoena. I get the sense that Chief Justice Roberts is very concerned about how the Supreme Court, under his leadership, will be viewed by future generations.

Roberts's rebuke of Don the Con's ranting is significant to me.

I see The Onion's taking over the Press Secretary's Twitter feed -- nothing like a good holiday chuckle to get the weekend going. Wait, really? He said that?

He could have noted that the number of rulings against his administration’s actions now stands somewhere in the range of about 40 to 50, according to a rough estimate by The Washington Post. Norman Siegel, writing at Law.com in January, counted 37 “major” losses, and that was in January, before numerous other rulings that thwarted Trump administration decisions. One of the toughest dressings-down came from a decision blocking Trump’s “sanctuary cities” crackdown written by Judge Ilana Rovner, appointed by President George H.W. Bush to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit, based in Chicago. In a decision joined by a Gerald Ford appointee and a Reagan appointee upholding a lower-court ruling by a Reagan appointee, she lit into the Trump administration for assuming powers to withhold money not granted to it by Congress to punish states and cities that didn’t go along with efforts to round up those in the country illegally. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2018/11/22/trump-judicial-fantasy-what-chief-justice-roberts-could-have-told-him-didnt/?utm_term=.f80caa1d2a1b

“In Riyadh, they must be laughing at President Trump. In Pyongyang, in Tehran. In Beijing and, of course, in Moscow, they must be laughing til it hurts. They look at Wash & they don’t see a champion of freedom & human rights. They see a preening, clueless clown.”

Former Republican but still a conservative, Max Boot. Yes, he is a conservative: The president cannot be bothered to go out into the rain to honor America’s war dead — or to interrupt his frequent golf outings for an unpleasant and possibly perilous trip to visit U.S. troops in a war zone. When asked about soldiers having to spend Thanksgiving away from their families on a pointless political deployment in Texas, Trump expressed complete indifference. “Don’t worry,” he said on his way to Mar-a-Lago. “These are tough people.” No wonder Trump refers to “my military”: He treats its members with all the consideration he might accord to groundskeepers at Mar-a-Lago. www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/wp/2018/11/23/the-only-cause-our-president-is-willing-to-serve-is-his-own-well-being/?utm_term=.2c67a34c9845

CAUTION: "Stable genius" at work (what a moron): President Trump is demanding top advisers craft a plan to reduce the country’s ballooning budget deficits, but the president has flummoxed his own aides by repeatedly seeking new spending while ruling out measures needed to address the country’s unbalanced budget. When former National Economic Council director Gary Cohn’s staffers prepared a presentation for Trump about deficits, Cohn told them no. It wouldn’t be necessary, he said, because the president did not care about deficits, according to current and former officials. Trump also repeatedly told Cohn to print more money, according to three White House officials familiar with his comments. “He’d just say, run the presses, run the presses,” one former senior administration official said, describing the president’s Oval Office orders. “Sometimes it seemed like he was joking, and sometimes it didn’t.” Trump often uses “debt” — the total amount the government owes — to refer to the deficit, the annual gap between what the government takes in and what it spends. Chief of Staff John F. Kelly has told others about watching television with Trump and asking the president how much the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff earns. Trump guessed $5 million, according to people who were told the story by Kelly, startling the chief of staff. Kelly responded that he made less than $200,000. The president suggested he get a large raise and noted the number of stars on his uniform. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-demands-action-to-reduce-deficit-and-pushes-new-deficit-spending/2018/11/25/86bdf120-d88c-11e8-9559-712cbf726d1c_story.html?utm_term=.5dc163e0fd91

I wonder how Trump is going to blame Obama for this and get his ignorant Trumpistas to believe him - are they tired of so much winning yet? The Detroit-based automaker said it would not be allocating any production to plants in Oshawa Assembly in Ontario, Lordstown Assembly in Ohio and Detroit-Hamtramck in Michigan after December 2019. It will also stop allocating production at propulsion plants in White Marsh, Md., and Warren, Mich., after December 2019. When President Trump announced tariffs last summer, Detroit’s Big Three automakers — GM, Ford and Fiat Chrysler — all trimmed their profit forecasts for the rest of the year, citing the rising commodity costs that would lead to hikes in prices and manufacturing costs. GM took a hard stance, warning of the fallout within the auto industry and saying that the tariffs risked “undermining GM’s competitiveness against foreign auto producers by erecting broad brush trade barriers that increase our global costs” in comments filed with the Commerce Department in June. www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/11/26/gm-lay-off-percent-salaried-workers-halt-production-five-plants-us-canada/?utm_term=.57d8bdc65e31
